OK, first of all apologies to those of you who have answered this question millions of times, but I've searched through all the threads and can't find what I'm looking for, so here goes......

I have a Pioneer DEH-6400R head unit that I wanna put into my corsa, I took the standard unit out last night (CDR 2005) to discover to my delight that the connectors on the car are standard ISO and so plugged in my Pioneer, only to find that it doesn't fit cos of the connectors on the car are designed to fit snuggly onto the original stereo and does not allow for the connectors on my pioneer!!

I am aware that you can get a harness adapter but that would seem to create the same problem, so do I have to remove anything else as I'm trying to be as warranty friendly as possible!! (BTW I am aware that I will need to get a fascia adapter, but that still won't solve this problem!)

I leave it open to you guys!!
